    Cool. Remember this well!

    I totally had this, and it was awesome. The magnetic letters/metal roof was a stroke of genius.

    My cousin (who I grew up with) had a lot of the original Peg-Anatomy Little People, and in fact her mom still has the Garage, Airplane, and maybe even School Bus. Some of the little kids were playing with them at our last family get-together, and having just as much fun as we did, all those years ago.

    I don't think Zoobles will have that kind of staying power! 😉

    Every child of the 70's fantasy: pretending to be in school.

    I never had one of these for my own, but my grandparents and aunt had one that I played with whenever I stayed at their houses. Loved those!

    Oh my goodness! I forgot I had this until I saw this image. I have fond memories washing over me. One in particular is I remember my sister using the chalk to illustrate what the dashed and double lines on roadways were meant to do. So crazy.

    My cousins had this and I loved it. I played with it every time I visited. Thanks for the memory.
